Volvo Penta Roller Bearing 183247

Volvo Penta 183247 is a genuine OEM roller bearing used in Volvo Penta marine engine and sterndrive service. Volvo Penta’s official parts shop continues to list 183247 as an active genuine roller bearing, and current schematic-based references place it in DP-G / marine propulsion. Current reviewed application references also identify it as an upper gear housing / upper gear unit roller bearing, which is the clearest customer-facing application context available. Current reviewed public sources do not publish a reliable OEM inside diameter, outside diameter, or width specification for this exact part number.

Key Features

Engine Compatibility
Current public fitment references for 183247 are broad and point more clearly to drive compatibility than to one narrow engine-only list. Strong reviewed sources associate Volvo Penta 183247 with older sterndrive and engine families including 100S, 110S, 230A, 230B, 250A, 251A, 275A, 280B, 285A, 290A, 290DP, 430, 431A, 500, 501A, 570, 571A, 740A, AD30A, AD31, AD40B, AD41, AQ115A, AQ120B, AQ125A, AQ130A/C, AQ131A/C, AQ145A, AQ151A, AQ165A, AQ170A/C, AQ175A, AQ200B, AQ205A, AQ225B/F, AQ231A/B, AQ240A, AQ255A/B, AQ260A/B, AQ271A/D, AQ290A, AQ311A/B, AQAD30A, AQAD40A/B, D41, D41B, DP-A through DP-G families, DPS families, DPX families, SP-A through SP-E, SX-A, SX-D, TAMD30/31/40/41/42 families, and TMD30/31/40/41 families. Because this is a bearing used across many driveline applications, fitment should still be confirmed by exact engine or drive serial number before ordering.

Serial Number Fitment Notice
Roller bearings can vary by shaft size, housing bore, bearing width, and production range even when the application family looks similar. Confirm Volvo Penta 183247 by engine or drive serial number and by matching the original bearing location and dimensions before ordering. The strongest reviewed application trail places it in upper gear / marine propulsion service, so serial-number confirmation remains the safest checkpoint.

When This Part Needs Replacement
Replace this bearing when the original shows roughness, noise, looseness, corrosion, visible wear, or damage found during upper gear housing or upper gear unit service. Current reviewed sources describe 183247 as supporting shafts and gears in the upper gear housing, reducing friction under load and helping maintain smooth operation, so replacement is typically tied to repair or overhaul work when the original no longer turns smoothly or supports the assembly correctly.

Installation Notes
Match the replacement directly to the original before installation and inspect the surrounding shaft and housing surfaces during service. Since current public references confirm the part number and upper-gear application more clearly than they publish a reliable OEM dimensional standard, direct comparison to the removed bearing and serial-number verification are the safest checkpoints before final assembly.

Alternate/Superseded Part Numbers
Current reviewed references show Volvo Penta 183247 associated with earlier or replaced numbers 183449, 3850853, 192280, and 806740 in current market data. Current confirmed Volvo Penta ordering number remains 183247.

Parts Desk Insight
For a part like 183247, the strongest buying checkpoint is the exact bearing location and serial-number-based parts lookup, not the word “bearing” alone. Current reviewed sources point most clearly to upper gear housing / upper gear unit service across a very wide range of Volvo Penta families, which makes serial-number confirmation the cleanest way to avoid ordering the wrong bearing.
